Configuration: Fedora 32 with Netgear Nighthawk R7000 router talking to
Hughes satellite.
Problem: Connecting (only) to Amazon, (any) page hangs attempting to
download (apparently) an image from
images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com.
Download succeeds for a dozen or so jpegs, then it hangs. Problem
appears to be independent of browser (chrome, firefox) and OS (happens
on (gasp) Windows 7 also).
Traceroute
images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com shows the round trip time to
suddenlink.net around 2000 ms.
So why am I bothering the list? It's Amazon's problem, after all.
Question: are there any settings on my end that might be tweaked to get
around the problem? Is there any way to diagnose the problem on my end?
Thanks.
